Good grief, an Obamista actually thinks the Arabs he's been talking to are telling the truth.

Bwahahahahahaha ~

[SkyDancer]

Here it comes ....

[rightwingextremist1776]

If he thinks the Israelis are going to go along with then the he's STILL smoking crack...

[Hoodat]

What is he proposing? Give the West Bank back to Jordan and Gaza back to Egypt?

[pgkdan]

I’ll bet he does broker a deal and I bet it holds for three and a half years.

[Dallas59]

What a fool he is.

[television is just wrong]

ok, all you jewish people out there are you proud you voted for this man?

[Canedawg]

If they are dumb enough to EVER give up the Golan Heights, they will get what they deserve, and it wont be pretty.

The Jews who voted for the muslim marxist dont care about Israel.

This deal would be absolute suicide for Israel. I hope their government realizes it. As soon as Israel withdrew to the 1967 borders the next arab Israeli war would begin. And Israel would have given away any strategic advantage it has gained in the last 40 years.

[jonatron]

"A bipartisan group of senior foreign policy advisers urged Obama to give the Arab plan top priority immediately after his election victory."

The deal would be that Israel

• Retreat to pre-1967 borders in Judea and Samaria,
• Abandoning Golan Heights to Syria,
• Abandon East Jerusalem for capital of PLO state,

in exchange for:

• Israel having a "veto" over Palestinian "refugees,"
• Israel receiving recognition of Israel by the Arab world,
• The United States removing defensive missiles from Poland and the Czech Republic.

...What a bargain!

According to a Washington source Obama told Abbas:

“The Israelis would be crazy not to accept this initiative. It would give them peace with the Muslim world from Indonesia to Morocco.”

A leading Democratic expert on the Middle East said:

“There’s not a lot of meat on the bones yet, but it offers recognition of Israel across the Arab world.”

...What a deal! This plan brought to you by:

Dennis Ross, Dan Kurtzer, Nobel laureate Shimon Peres, Brent "NWO" Scowcroft, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Lee Hamilton, King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and Barack Obama.

This article also said,

Ehud Olmert, the prime minister, last week expressed his support for Israel’s withdrawal from the West Bank, Golan Heights and east Jerusalem.

Tzipi Livni is going to lose the election in February. She's an empty suit like Obama. And even more dim-witted than her predecessor, whom no one misses.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

[montag813]

Obama intends to throw his support behind a 2002 Saudi peace initiative endorsed by the Arab League and backed by Tzipi Livni, the Israeli foreign minister and leader of the ruling Kadima party.

Ok, it is clear then. Supporters of Israel must do everything in their power to defeat Tzipi Livni in the coming election. Defeat Livni, and you defeat Obama's plan to destroy Israel.

Essentially the GWB/Condi plan.

If Israel doesn't want it, it's their task to resist.

If Obama, like GWB, makes this dance a "cornerstone" of American policy, he's a fool.

But he probably will, I expect him to be less insightful reading terrorists hearts than GWB was with Putin, who will soon be giving BHO some heartburn.

[dervish]

This article misrepresents both what Peres, Livni and Ehud Barak said. None endorsed the Saudi Plan except as a starting point for negotiation and recognition of Israel by the entire Arab League. They did not agree to return all pre 1967 land or the Palestinian right of return.
